Question

heterotrophs convert solar energy into chemical energy?

Answer 1

no. that is autotrophs. autotrophs use this method to produce their own source of food. heterotrophs (ex. humans) rely on other organisms for their source of energy/food.

Answer 2

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Heterotrophs are species that are not able to produce their own food. They depends producers for their food. A producer is capable to fix carbon from the atmosphere into chemical compounds or food by using or trapping solar energy. A producer can also be denoted as autotrophs.  

Autotrophs have chlorophyll in them which allows them to photosynthesize in the presence of sun and hence produce food and energy for themselves and other organisms

Hence, the given statement is false
